All in NYC?
I would take them in the order you listed
CS- sponsors is solid, tech is good (if SF), M&A DB- LevFin, Sponsors, M&A BAML- M&A, Sponsors, I think healthcare is strong (someone can correct that)
So basically sponsors is good everywhere as is M&A.
CS has the strongest west coast office in my mind as well.
Good stuff. I'd add cavaet BAML M&A: it's tech-only on the West coast and I haven't got great impressions about their tech team's dealflow and exit opps. VP not-so-subtley encouraged me to go to their NY superday instead of the Palo Alto one. He was from NY himself, so he's obviously biased, but it's food for thought. That being said, any BB M&A is never 'bad,' and this is just my limited, college-studenty impression. Don't take it as gospel.
BAML M&A is definitely weakest among bulge brackets - also a sweatshop. If you don't have guaranteed offers in terms of groups, I'd say CS=BAML>DB.
This is really funny stuff. CS = BAML > DB? CS SF Tech good? Some advice given on here is not even in the same ballpark.
I would CS -> DB -> BAML. CS NY culture sucks though
This is not an apples to apples comparison. It all depends which group. If you have NO idea in terms of group placement, it'll probably be CS > DB > BAML. But I'm assuming you have a general idea of which group you want to be in...so the above ranking is irrelevant.
MS from 2 users with a combined 0 posts? Really?
LOL so much MS in this thread. Comical.
If you were guaranteed certain groups at DB or BAML (Sponsors, Lev Fin, M&A, etc) then that would be a better bet than CS. I'd talk to HR at DB and BAML and see if u can leverage for a group specific offer. If not, and all of them are generalist, I'd take CS.
do you think cs is the going to wind down its ibd operations though? it was in the papers a while back that they wanted to focus on wealth management.
No. Watch some recent interviews with Brady Dougan, he is quite keen on the IB division and increasing returns on capital.
That's UBS.
BAML's LevFin is top on the street and definitely their best group. JP also really solid. Those two usually trade 1/2 in league tables. Sponsors is also good but if they are like most sponsors (and many M&A groups) pawn a lot of the real work onto the coverage groups.
Have never heard anything about BAML healthcare.
why the hell did this comment get MS? this seems to be very accurate from what i have heard about these groups... healthcare groups are always sweatshops regardless of bank
How do you think CS stacks up against Citi and Barclays? Do you think CS is the 4th most prestigious after GS, MS & JP among the BBs?
